It was actually 27..but had like 8+ additional that were declined.
The majority came in like 6 game stretch...games that the Bucs were comfortably in front...the DPI calls, shockingly, didn't happen.
It wasnt really surprising that this trend carried over to the Super Bowl...it was shocking that they called a record amount of penalties in the first half. I've never seen anything like that in a SB.
The previous record for DPI calls in a season was 20...Raiders 12-4 miracle season a few years ago...Brady destroyed that record by almost 30%. That would like a RB not only breaking the 2000 yard barrier..but ending with 3000 yards..
I just used that comparison to show out of whack it was...
